Bluffton has grown from a one square mile river village into a town of more than 54 square miles, and its vehicles now cover ground the original town never imagined. We install GPS tracking, dash and backup cameras, and telematics in municipal vehicles across the Lowcountry, working on site so patrol units and work trucks lose as little road time as possible. Whatever platform the Town has chosen, our technicians install it cleanly and to the manufacturer's standard.
Bluffton Police Department. The department is dually accredited by the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA) and the South Carolina Law Enforcement Accreditation Program, and it first earned national accreditation in 2009. Patrol units work a jurisdiction full of unincorporated pockets, so knowing exactly where a car is matters. We install tracking and camera hardware around existing lights, radios and computers without disturbing upfitted equipment.
Public Services. Public Services keeps up the Town's buildings, grounds, parks and roads, and its trucks spend the day moving between job sites. GPS and engine data give supervisors a clear picture of routes, idle time and maintenance needs for vehicles that rarely sit still.
Projects & Watershed Resilience. This department manages capital improvement projects and watershed management, including the long running work to protect the May River. Its staff drive to construction sites, drainage projects and outfalls across town, where location history helps document site visits.
Growth Management. Growth Management houses the Building Safety office, whose inspectors and plan reviewers keep pace with steady construction. Inspection vehicles cover a lot of ground in a single day, and tracking helps schedule inspections in logical order.
Emergency Management and Town Administration. The Town also runs Emergency Management, Trash and Recycling services, and administrative staff who use pool vehicles. We fit these with the same platform the rest of the fleet runs, so everything reports to one place.
Every major platform, installed on site for Bluffton fleets.
Live location, trip history and alerts for every unit, whether it is working Old Town's narrow streets or running the length of Bluffton Parkway and Buckwalter Parkway. We hide and secure devices properly so they stay reporting through daily use.
Forward, cab and rear cameras record what happens on US-278, SC-46 and SC-170, some of the busiest corridors in the Lowcountry. Backup cameras matter for trucks maneuvering around parks, boat landings and job sites with limited room.
We install Samsara, Motive, Geotab, Verizon Connect, Lytx, Netradyne, Powerfleet and CalAmp. If the Town already has a contract, we work with that platform. We also offer equipment along with installation for departments that have not yet picked hardware.
Bluffton's population climbed from 1,275 in 2000 to 27,716 in the 2020 census, and annexations continue to add land. Every new neighborhood and commercial area stretches patrol and service routes. Tracking data shows where vehicles actually spend their time, which helps when planning staffing and routes for areas the Town has just taken on.
Because of South Carolina's annexation rules, the town boundary includes many unincorporated pockets that belong to Beaufort County. Geofences built around the real town limits help departments see when a unit is inside its own jurisdiction and when it is not.
US-278 carries traffic between Interstate 95 and Hilton Head Island, and SC-46 and SC-170 feed it from the north and west. Camera footage gives departments a factual record when an incident happens in that traffic, and speed and harsh braking alerts help drivers stay careful on crowded roads.
Fire protection in Bluffton is provided by the Bluffton Township Fire District, a special tax district created by Beaufort County Council in 1978 that serves about 246 square miles. Ambulance service comes from Beaufort County EMS. Neither is part of the Town's own fleet, so this page covers Town departments only. We are glad to talk with either agency directly about their vehicles.
Our crews work throughout southern Beaufort County and Jasper County, and we travel to the Town's facilities so vehicles do not have to leave Bluffton. Nearby areas we serve include:
Yes. We plan each install around the lights, radios, computers and partitions already in place and tap power safely without affecting existing equipment.
No. We install all major platforms, including Samsara, Motive, Geotab, Verizon Connect, Lytx, Netradyne, Powerfleet and CalAmp, so the Town can choose based on its contract and needs.
Yes. We come to the Town's facilities and schedule around shifts so departments keep vehicles in service.
Those agencies run their own fleets separately from the Town. We can work with them, but that would be arranged directly with each agency.
Yes. Tracking works everywhere, and geofences can be drawn to match the actual town limits so reports show when units are inside or outside the Town's jurisdiction.
